83. The end of the original journey

“F*ck it, kill it if you can.”

When Choi Joo-won shouted proudly, Won Yeo-jeong raised her energy in her own body.

‘Church of Ice’

Thanks to the magic she used, an extremely cold aura circulated through her original journey body. A cold chill that seems to freeze everything around it.

Won Yeo-jeong spoke coldly.

“You will regret it.”

She was confident in the original journey. She gained her powers at the cost of countless people’s lives. It was difficult for her to think that no matter how much Choi Joo-won could fly and crawl, she would be stronger than she, who used magic that was considered taboo in the country. No, she wanted to believe it.

-Sueuk

Yuen Yuan stretched out her arms, and in an instant, several icicles formed in her air. It was surrounded by a dangerous feeling that was essentially different from the ice spear created by her magic, and at the same time, a cold, flesh-ripping chill.

-Hush-!

In an instant, cold icicles flying towards Choi Joo-won. Choi Joo-won looked at it and thought.

‘The energy is stronger than I thought. Would this be similar to Baekjuseok?’

She won in the end, but when she fought Baek Joo-suk, she had a harder time than expected. The case is a little different because Baek Joo-seok received the help of the Dark Artifact, but if you look at the degree of origin, he is using taboo magic equivalent to the Dark Artifact, so it is true that both of them were able to temporarily use force far superior to wizards of the same level. It was like

That’s why Joo-Won Choi was not vigilant and actively utilized external mana.

[Absorption]

First of all, it sucked in the mana in the air to replenish it, and then exhaled it.

[Release]

-Quaaang-!

A mass of mana that shoots quickly, that mass was enough to break the icicles blown by the original journey.

Won Yeo-yeon saw Choi Joo-won responding quickly and talked while looking at her with interest.

“The response is quicker than I thought. Then stop this too.”

As the original traveler drew a large circle with her hand, her fan-shaped ice appeared. Before long, she grabbed a fan made of ice and started shaking it, at the end of which a cold storm began to rage.

-Hwieeeing

In an instant, the hall was filled with cold air. If it were a normal person, just being hit by the cold right now would freeze her whole body, and even the slightest touch with her hand would have shattered it. However, Choi Joo-won was different.

[Cycle]

-Huh

Choi Joo-won constantly circulated the mana inside his body and created a protective shield with it to maintain his body temperature. It effectively blocks cold air from outside.

-Sueuk

And, before long, Choi Joo-won started a counterattack.

[Teleport]

Choi Joo-won came near Won-Yeo-Jung in an instant, but Won-Yeo-Jung wasn’t just looking at it.

“Don’t be desperate. Wormy guy You will die in the end.”

Won Yeo-yeon shouted and opened her mouth wide at Choi Joo-won. From the mouth of her original journey, her caterpillar-like chunks of ice began to crawl out frantically.

-Procrastination

-Paaat-!

The chunks of ice protruding from her mouth tried to wrap Choi Joo-won’s body in an instant.

-Hwiririk

But Choi Joo-won turned her body around and swung her sword in all directions.

-Chajajajajajang-!

“Damn… Nonsense… How could something like a sword without an aura…!”

What Joo-Won Choi is using is a legendary class artifact, Hellhound’s Fang. Hellhound’s fangs are even growth artifacts. In addition, he has killed numerous enemies and has fully grown. That’s why, without wearing an aura like an aura, he was able to cut off any number of blocks of ice created by the Won Journey’s magic.

Unthinkable with normal artifacts. Won Yeo-jung couldn’t help but be embarrassed.

-Shudder

Won Yeo-jeong stiffened at the moment. It was because he lost his will to fight for a moment after seeing the ridiculous sight Choi Joo-won showed him.

‘It’s different.’

I was feeling the original journey. The fact that she couldn’t win. It was only natural that Choi Joo-won’s ability in a short period of time gave him a different look from ordinary wizards.

Generally, mages are not good at melee combat. Even if he was good at melee combat, it was enough to wield a sword to some extent, never enough to break the magic of a high-ranking wizard.

However, Joo-Won Choi was not good enough to use ridiculous magic, so he showed an excellent figure even in close combat.

It’s not just about swinging a sword. Even in the extreme motion of turning the body, it accurately catches and smashes flying chunks of ice. Even the sword looks unusual.

‘Ah…’

Won Yeo-jeong had no choice but to admit his defeat. In the first place, Choi Joo-won continued to drag and use mana from the outside. Won Journey doesn’t know how to use external mana.

As the battle continues, the mana of the Won Journey will be consumed. Conversely, Choi Joo-won would rather maintain his status quo.

‘If the battle lasts longer, I will be the one who dies.’

Won Yeo-jeong thought so and drew the coldness from her body.

-Koo-gu-gu-gu-!

In an instant, the building started shaking like crazy. A whirlwind of cold air began to swirl around her original journey, freezing everything around her.

“Uhhhhh-!”

After being beaten by Joo-Won Choi, those who had fainted or were crippled on the ground began to freeze in an instant, making a terrible sound. Not only everyone around, but even things were frozen.

Joo-Won Choi shouted while looking at Do-Chun Lim behind him.

“Stay out, because you have to testify about the bullshit Yuan Yeo-kun did to her. Does she know what will happen if she runs away? I can track you So you better not do anything in vain.”

“Even… I will not run away.”

And Joo-Won Choi looked here and there to find Min-Hwan Lee, an assistant to Won-Yeo-Jin, who would be in her hall.

“What the f*ck.”

I didn’t see it. Lee Min-hwan’s reaction, which had been feeling energetic just a moment ago, had disappeared.

‘Is he dead?’

Because the original journey was exuding too much energy, she lost sight of Lee Min-hwan’s energy for a moment. An attendant who disappeared in the blink of an eye.

‘Well, it doesn’t matter anyway.’

It won’t be a big problem if you miss one of the attendants. She was in charge of her body anyway, because it was the original journey. The Darfeld Guild was virtually annihilated, and Won Yeo-do is now using excessive force. If even the guild leader is lost, Lee Min-hwan will also have no means to transfer or escape. Grab him slowly and kill him.

‘For now, let’s deal with what’s in front of us.’

-Quegwagwagwagwang-!

The building begins to shake. Choi Joo-won activated the wise man’s eyes toward Won Yeo-jeong.

– Currently, the inner space is filled with cold energy. The basis of the cold energy is mostly the thoughts of the dead. Efficient destruction is possible by using divine power.

When dealing with those who use unusual magic like Won Journey, rather than using a wide range of skills like Meteor. It was much more efficient to find out what the weakness was and respond accordingly, as it is now.

As you can see, the original journey’s weakness is divine power. Then, of course, the magic Choi Joo-won could use was also decided.

[Goddess’ Spear]

A spear filled with divine power was created in the air.

“What are you going to do with just one sword like that? In this situation, it’s surprising that you use divine power instead of fire magic, but that kind of magic won’t even hurt me.”

She talked about the original journey calmly, but her hands and legs were shaking like crazy.

Joo-Won Choi exclaimed as she stretched out her hand toward the sky.

[Goddess Spear, Nesting]

-Hooung

-Hooung

-Hooung

In an instant, the number of spears of the Goddess increased from one to several, and soon the number increased to two digits.

-Shhhhh

Dozens of goddess spears flying in the air. All the windows contained goosebumps of mighty divine power.

“What the hell… how…”

Won Yeo-jeong shuddered and shouted.

“How the hell did you get such great power? I tried to die for my strength. He coveted the lives of others in order to obtain power, and did not hesitate to do dirty work. Because this world needs power. If you are not a predator, you become a prey. Even if it is dirty, I tried to live. In other words, rather than having something precious taken away from others, I tried to die to be the one who took it away. What the hell are you How could someone like you have such strong power…!”

-Hey!

-Poo-wook

One of the spears of the goddess created by Choi Joo-won was inserted into Won Yeo-jeong’s abdomen.

-Sueuk

The original journey put her hand on the spear of her goddess.

-Passasak

Then the window froze and broke and disappeared. However, soon Choi Joo-won blew away all the swords one by one.

[Force]

Won Yeo-yeon tried to defend her stubbornly, but all the coldness she emitted was pierced by Choi Joo-won’s Goddess’ spear.

-Poo Woo-wook

-Pooh woo woo-!

-Pushyuk-!

Soon, the spear of the goddess pierced the body of the original traveler. The look of her made her look like her hedgehog.

– Cool-!

Thick blood began to flow from Won Yeo-jeong’s body.

-Parr

She froze in her place, shaking her body.

-Jerbuck

-Jerbuck

Choi Joo-won slowly walked towards her.

“Do you have anything to say before you die?”

Choi Joo-won looked down at her blood dripping from all over her body and talked about her.

Yuan Yeoing forcibly opened her non-falling lips and muttered.

“I… I know I was wrong…”

The cold air no longer flowed from Won Yeo-jung’s body. It was because dozens of spears containing divine power were blocking her energy.

She looked at Joo-Won Choi and muttered.

“I… I can’t die… As a side effect of the sacrificial crusade… The principal… Became an undying body…”

Choi Joo-won looked at Won Yeo-jeong with a smile.

“Will I really die? If you really don’t die, I’ll torture you all day, and if that doesn’t work, I’ll seal it. Either way, it will be as painful as dying.”

Won Yeo-jung trembled and spoke to Choi Joo-won.

“That… I’m not lying… I don’t really die… Huh… You can check…”

Choi Joo-won answered while staring at her original journey.

“So what? Won’t you feel the pain?”

“I… I know I was wrong. That… So I’ll let you wear the stigma of atonement.”

The brand of atonement. It is a magic that can be cast if both the caster and the target agree to it. The target’s body is immediately marked with the stigma of atonement, and until the magic caster frees it, they are taken to an unknown space and suffer eons of pain in real time.

In the past, magic that was often used by nations to torture criminals. This magic couldn’t be used for combat because it required mutual consent, but it was more dangerous than any other magic because it made people feel the pain of tearing flesh every second. A terrible magic that causes your mind to collapse day by day if you are caught with the stigma of atonement and taken to subspace.

It will lead to more painful days than Choi Joo-won tearing his entire body apart. I’d rather die.

Joo-Won Choi was silent for a while before asking a question.

“It would be better to be tortured than to be branded for atonement. Why are you doing that?”

She put her trembling hands together and started rubbing them together. Like an apology.

“Tongue…Hyeonseo… Please keep our Hyeonseo a secret from the state…”

-Jureureuk

Tears flowed from Won Yeo-jeong’s eyes.

“I don’t care if I suffer for eternity… Please… Forgive that poor child…”

She lost her power, her guild members, and everything she had, not begging for her own life, but crying like a child and telling her Choi Joo-won about her daughter. Begged for forgiveness

“….”

Choi Joo-won was just quietly watching her.
